First Blog

Hello. You may be wondering what type of blog this will be or who I am. To be honest, I’m trying to figure out the same thing. I will start by saying that my name is Eddy and I currently graduated from San Francisco State University.

I do not know what type of blog this will be, but in time you will know my secrets, my story, how I arrived at this point, and where I will go from here. It’s pretty interesting stuff to be honest. I would have never expected to be telling you about myself, but there were always times were I wanted to document my life and this is the perfect opportunity. My life in blog.

A bit about myself: I am from Orange County; I like the beach, sunny weather, going to the bars, and taking hour long walks to different locations. I consider myself average in most aspects of life and I learned that this should be something to be proud of being. Not all people are average, so I am happy that I am. Many people describe me as a shy person, and I agree with them. To be honest, I am surprised that I managed to make friends in the first place. I have a small vocabulary, so expect to see many repeated words. I ramble about insignificant stories that happen to me throughout the day and many people find this boring. I tend to over-analyze situations that should not be analyzed. I contradict myself far too often. I am socially awkward, but pretty social with friends.

Now that you know a bit about myself, I hope you do not judge too harshly. This is a blog about my life and everybody in it should remain anonymous except for myself. I forgot to mention that I am gay. Yeah, that changes things up a bit and makes things a lot more interesting doesn’t it. I come from a Mexican family that doesn’t think neither good nor bad of gay identifying individuals. I “came out” to my parents November 2012 and I received mixed reactions (seems like I am doing a movie review I know). My brothers had a better reaction. They support me 100 percent although we do not talk about gay issues or my relationships. I find it kind of funny how I am still hiding a part of me even though they said that they were fine with me being gay. I think they just do not know how to react, so they chose to say that they were okay. I do not judge them; I am trying to figure myself and I should not expect them to know everything about me. My family is pretty private. We do not talk about family issues to strangers, and I am sure they will get upset if they ever saw this blog. I have written too much to stop.

There. You now have some information about my life. Please try not to be too judgmental. I hope you have a wonderful day.
